This is a division of application Ser. No. 08/140,635, filed on Oct. 21, 1993, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,462,913.
The invention relates to 1-H-3-aryl-pyrrolidine-2,4-dione derivatives, to a plurality of processes for their preparation and to their use as pesticides (in particular as insecticides and acaricides) and as herbicides.
It has previously been described that 3-acyl-pyrrolidine-2,4-diones have pharmaceutical properties (S. Suzuki et al. Chem. Pharm. Bull 15 1120 (1967)). N-Phenyl-pyrrolidine-2,4-diones were furthermore synthesized by R. Schmierer and H. Mildenberger (Liebigs Ann. Chem. 1985 1095). A biological activity of these compounds has not been described.
EP-A 0,262,399 discloses compounds which have a similar structure (3-aryl-pyrrolidine-2,4-diones), but nothing has been disclosed about them as having a herbicidal, insecticidal or acaricidal activity. Unsubstitutedt bicyclic 3-aryl-pyrrolidine-2,4-dione derivatives (EP-A 355 599) and (EP 415,211) as well as substituted monocyclic 3-aryl-pyrrolidine-2,4-dione derivatives (EP-A377,893, EP 442,077, and EP 497 127)have been disclosed and have a herbicidal, insecticidal or acaricidal activity.
Polycyclic 3-arylpyrrolidine-2,4-dione derivatives (EP 442 073), substituted bicyclic 3-arylpyrrolidine-2,4-diones as well as 1-H-3-arylpyrrolidine-dione derivatives (EP 456 063, EP 521 334, EP 501 129) have also been disclosed.
New substituted spirocyclic 1-H-3-aryl-pyrolidine-2,4-dione derivatives of the formula (I) ##STR2## have now been found, in which

R1 represents in each case optionally halogen-substituted alkyl, alkenyl, alkoxyalkyl, alkylthioalkyl, polyalkoxyalkyl or cycloalkyl, which can be interrupted by hetero atoms, optionally substituted phenyl, optionally substituted phenylalkyl, substituted hetaryl, substituted phenoxyalkyl or substituted hetaryloxyalkyl,
R2 represents in each case optionally halogen-substituted alkyl alkenyl, alkoxyalkyl, polyalkoxyalkyl or in each case optionally substituted phenyl or benzyl,
R3, R4 and R5 independently of one another represent in each case optionally halogen-substituted alkyl, alkoxy, alkylamino, dialkyamino, alkylthio, alkenylthio, cycloalkylthio and in each case optionally substituted phenyl, phenoxy or phenylthio,
R6 and R7 independently of one another represent hydrogen, in each case optionally halogen-substituted alkyl, alkenyl, alkoxy, alkoxyalkyl, or represent optionally substituted phenyl, optionally substituted benzyl, or, together with the adjacent N-atom, represent a cycle which is optionally interrupted by oxygen or sulphur.
Taking into account the various meanings (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), and (f) of group G of the general formula (I), the following main structures (Ia) to (Ig) result: ##STR4## in which A, B, E, L, M, X, Y, Z, R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7 and n have the abovementioned meanings.
Due to one or more chiral centres, the compounds of the formula (Ia)-(Ig) are generally obtained in the form of a stereoisomer mixture which can be resolved, if appropriate, in the customary manner. They can be used in the form of their diasteromer mixtures as well as in the form of pure diasteromers or enantiomers. The text hereinafter will always discuss compounds of the formula (Ia) to (Ig), for the sake of simplicity, even though this is to be understood as meaning the pure compounds as well as the mixtures which contain various proportions of isomeric, enantiomeric and stereomeric compounds.

From the order of the Acarina, for example, Acarus siro, Argas spp., Ornithodoros spp., Dermanyssus gallinae., Eriophyes ribis, Phyllocoptruta oleivora, Boophilus spp., Rhipicephalus spp., Amblyomma spp., Hyalomma spp., Ixodes spp., Psoroptes spp., Chorioptes spp., Sarcoptes spp., Tarsonemus spp., Byrobia praetiosa, Panonychus spp., Tetranychus spp..
The active compounds according to the invention are distinguished by a higher insecticidal and acaricidal activity.
They can be used particularly successfully for combating insects which are harmful to plants such as, for example, against the larvae of the mustard beetle (Phaedon cochleariae) or against the larvae of the green rice cicada (Nephotettix cincticeps) against the caterpillars of the cabbage moth Phutella maculipennis.
The active compounds according to the invention can furthermore be used as defoliants, desiccants, agents for destroying broad-leaved plants and, especially, as weed-killers. By weeds, in the broadest sense, there are to be understood all plants which grow in locations where they are undesired. Whether the substances according to the invention act as total or selective herbicides depends essentially on the amount used.
The active compounds according to the invention can be used, for example, in connection with the following plants:
Dicotyledon weeds of the genera: Sinapis, Lepidium, Galium, Stellaria, Matricaria, Anthemis, Galinsoga, Chenopodium, Urtica, Senecio, Amaranthus, Portulaca, Xanthium, Convolvulus, Ipomoea, Polygonum, Sesbania, Ambrosia, Cirsium, Carduus, Sonchus, Solanum, Rorippa, Rotala, Lindernia, Lamium, Veronica, Abutilon, Emex, Datura, Viola, Galeopsis, Papaver, Centaurea, Trifolium, Ranunculus and Taraxacum.
Dicotyledon cultures of the genera: Gossypium, Glycine, Beta, Daucus, Phaseolus, Pisum, Solanum, Linum, Ipomoea, Vicia, Nicotiana, Lycopersicon, Arachis, Brassica, Lactuca, Cucumis and Cucurbita.
Monocotyledon weeds of the genera: Echinochloa, Setaria, Panicum, Digitaria, Phleum, Poa, Festuca, Eleusine, Brachiaria, Lolium, Bromus, Arena, Cyperus, Sorghum, Agropyron, Cynodon, Monochoria, Fimbristylis, Sagittaria, Eleocharis, Stirpus, Paspalum, Ischaemum, Sphenoclea, Dactyloctenium, Agrostis, Alopecurus and Apera.
Monocotyledon cultures of the genera: Oryza, Zea, Triticum, Hordeum, Avena, Secale, Sorghum, Panicum, Saccharum, Ananas, Asparagus and Allium.
However, the use of the active compounds according to the invention is in no way restricted to these genera, but also extends in the same manner to other plants.
The compounds are suitable, depending on the concentration, for the total combating of weeds, for example on industrial terrain and rail tracks, and on paths and squares with or without tree plantings. Equally, the compounds can be employed for combating weeds in perennial cultures, for example afforestations, decorative tree plantings, orchards, vineyards, citrus groves, nut orchards, banana plantations, coffee plantations, tea plantations, rubber plantations, oil palm plantations, cocoa plantations, soft fruit plantings and hopfields, in lawns, turf and pasture-land, and for the selective combating of weeds in annual cultures.
The active compounds according to the invention are highly suitable for selectively combating monocotyledon weeds in dicotyledon cultures by the pre- and post-emergence methods. They can be employed highly successfully for example in cotton or sugar beet for combating grass weeds.
The active compounds can be converted into the customary formulations, such as solutions, emulsions, wettable powders, suspensions, powders, dusting agents, pastes, soluble powders, granules, suspension-emulsion concentrates, natural and synthetic materials impregnated with active compound, and very fine capsules in polymeric substances.
These formulations are produced in a known manner, for example by mixing the active compounds with extenders, that is liquid solvents and/or solid carriers, optionally with the use of surface-active agents, that is emulsifying agents and/or dispersing agents and/or foam-forming agents.
In the case of the use of water as an extender, organic solvents can, for example, also be used as auxiliary solvents. As liquid solvents, there are suitable in the main: aromatics, such as xylene, toluene or alkyl-naphthalenes, chlorinated aromatics and chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as chlorobenzenes, chloroethylenes or methylene chloride, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as cyclohexane or paraffins, for example petroleum fractions, mineral and vegetable oils, alcohols, such as butanol or glycol as well as their ethers and esters, ketones, such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone or cyclohexanone, strongly polar solvents, such as dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulphoxide, as well as water.
As solid carriers there are suitable: for example ammonium salts and ground natural minerals, such as kaolins, clays, talc, chalk, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite or diatomaceous earth, and ground synthetic minerals, such as highly disperse silica, alumina and silicates, as solid carriers for granules there are suitable: for example crushed and fractionated natural rocks such as calcite, marble, pumice, sepiolite and dolomite, as well as synthetic granules of inorganic and organic meals, and granules of organic material such as sawdust, coconut shells, maize cobs and tobacco stalks; as emulsifying and/or foam-forming agents there are suitable: for example non-ionic and anionic emulsifiers, such as polyoxyethylene fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene fatty alcohol ethers, for example alkyl-aryl polyglycol ethers, alkylsulphonates, alkyl sulphates, arylsulphonates as well as albumen hydrolysis products; as dispersing agents there are suitable: for example lignin-sulphite waste liquors and methylcellulose.
Adhesives such as carboxymethylcellulose and natural and synthetic polymers in the form of powders, granules or latexes, such as gum arabic, polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl acetate, as well as natural phospholipids, such as cephalins and lecithins, and synthetic phospholipids, can be used in the formulations. Further additives can be mineral and vegetable oils.
It is possible to use colorants such as inorganic pigments, for example iron oxide, titanium oxide and Prussian Blue, and organic dyestuffs, such as alizarin dyestuffs, azo dyestuffs and metal phthalocyanine dye-stuffs, and trace nutrients such as salts of iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc.
The formulations in general contain between 0.1 and 95 per cent by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.5 and 90%.
For combating weeds, the active compounds according to the invention, as such or in the form of their formulations, can also be used as mixtures with known herbicides, finished formulations or tank mixes being possible.
Suitable herbicides for the mixtures are known herbicides, such as, for example, 1-amino-6-ethylthio-3-(2,2-dimethylpropyl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4(1H,3H)-dione (AMETHYDIONE) or N-(2-benzothiazolyl)-N,N'-dimethylurea (METABENZTHIAZURON) for combating weeds in cereals; 4-amino-3-methyl-6-phenyl-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one (METAMITRON) for combating weeds in sugar beet and 4-amino-6-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-3-methylthio-1,2,4-triazin-5(4H)-one (METRIBUZIN) for combating weeds in soya beans.

Surprisingly, some mixtures also show a synergistic action.
A mixture with other known active compounds, such as fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, nematicides, bird repellants, plant nutrients and agents which improve soil structure, is also possible.
The active compounds can be used as such, in the form of their formulations or in the use forms prepared therefrom by further dilution, such as ready-to-use solutions, suspensions, emulsions, powders, pastes and granules. They are used in the customary manner, for example by watering, spraying, atomizing or scattering.
The active compounds according to the invention can be applied either before or after emergence of the plants.
They can also be incorporated into the soil before sowing.
The amount of active compound used can vary within a substantial range. It depends essentially on the nature of the desired effect. In general, the amounts used are between 0.01 and 10 kg of active compound per hectare of soil surface, preferably between 0.05 and 5 kg per ha.
The preparation and use of the active compounds according to the invention can be seen from the following examples.
PREPARATION EXAMPLES Example (Ia-1) ##STR155##
4.14 g (0.138 mol) of sodium hydride are suspended in 70 ml of absolute toluene and the mixture is refluxed. 25.6 g (0.069 mol) of methyl N-(2,4,6-trimethylphenylacetyl)-1-amino-4-t.-butyl-cyclohexanecarboxylate in 140 ml of absolute toluene are added dropwise and the mixture is subsequently refluxed until the reaction has ended (checked by thin-layer chromatography). After the mixture has cooled to room temperature, ethanol is added dropwise, with ice-cooling, until no more hydrogen evolves. The solvent is then evaporated, the residue is taken up in ethanol, and the mixture is stirred into approx. 10% strength hydrochloric acid at 0°-20° C. The solid which has precipitated is filtered off with suction and dried.
After recrystallisation from chloroform/hexane, 14.90 g (63% of theory) of 3(2,4.,6-trimethylphenyl)-5,5-(4-t-butyl)-pentamethylene-pyrrolidine-2,4-dione of melting point m.p.: >220° C. are obtained (β-isomer).
Example (Ia-2) ##STR156##
37.2 g (0.331 mol) of potassium tert.-butylate are heated at reflux temperature in 100 ml of absolute tetrahydrofuran. 52 g (0.151 mol) of methyl N-(2,4,6-trimethylphenylacetyl)-1-amino-4,4-dimethyl-cyclohexanecarboxylate in 510 ml of absolute toluene are added dropwise, and the mixture is refluxed for 90 minutes. When the reaction has ended, the batch is brought to room temperature, and 500 ml of water are added. The aqueous phase is separated off, and the toluene phase is extracted using 220 ml of water. The combined aqueous phases are washed with toluene and subsequently treated with 50 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid at room temperature. The solid which has precipitated is filtered with suction, washed and dried. To purify the crude product further, it is suspended in 300 ml of methyl tert.-butyl ether and subjected to filtration suction. 44.9 g (95% of theory) of 3-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-5,5-(4,4-dimethyl)-pentamethylene-pyrrolidine-2,4-dione of melting point m.p.:>220° C. are obtained.

Example (Ib-1) ##STR158##
5.12 g (0.015 mol) of 3-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-5,5-(4-t.-butyl)-pentamethylene-pyrrolidine-2,4-dione are dissolved in 60 ml of absolute dichloromethane, and 2.1 ml of trimethylamine are added. 1.13 ml of acetyl chloride in 5 ml of absolute dichoromethane are added at 0° to 10° C. The end of the reaction is determined by thin-layer chromatography. The mixture is washed subsequently twice with 100 ml portions of 0.5N sodium hydroxide solution, and the organic phase is dried over magnesium sulphate. The residue which is obtained after the solvent has been evaporated is recrystallised from ethyl acetate/n-hexane.
2 g(35% of theory) of 3-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-5,5-(4-t.-butyl)-pentamethylene-4-acetyloxy-.DELTA.3-pyrolin-2-one of melting point m.p.:>220° C. are obtained. (β-isomer).

Example (Ic-1) ##STR163##
5.12 g (0.015 mol) of 3-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-5,5-(4-t.-butyl)-pentamethylene-pyrrolidine-2,4-dione are dissolved in 60 ml of absolute dichloromethane and the solution is treated with 2.1 ml of triethylamine. 2.05 g of sec-butyl chloroformate in 5 ml of absolute dichloromethane are added at 0°-10° C., and stirring of the batch is continued at room temperature. The end of the reaction is determined by thin-layer chromatography. The batch is subsequently washed twice using 100 ml portions of 0.5N sodium hydroxide solution, and the organic phase is dried over magnesium sulphate. The residue obtained after evaporation of the solvent is recrystallised from ethyl acetate/n-hexane.
4.4 g (66% of theory) of 0-(sec.-butyl)-0- 3-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-5,5-(4-t.-butyl)-pentamethylene-Δ3-pyrrolin-4-yl-2-one! carbonate of melting point m.p.: >220° C. (β-isomer).
Example (Ic-2) ##STR164##

Example (Id-1) ##STR166##
5.99 g (0.02 mol) 3-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-5,5-(4-methyl)-pentamethylene-pyrrolidine-2,4-dione are dissolved in 70 ml of absolute dichloromethane and the solution is treated with 2.8 ml of triethylamine. 2.29 g of methane sulphonyl chloride in 5 ml of absolute dichloromethane are added dropwise at 0° C. to 10° C. The end of the reaction is determined by thin-layer chromatography. The mixture is subsequently washed twice using 200 ml portions of 0.5N sodium hydroxide solution and the organic phase is dried over magnesium sulphate. After the solvent has been removed and the residue has been suspended in ethyl acetate, 3.1 g (41% of theory) of 3-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl-5,5-(4-methyl)-pentamethylene-4-methylsulphonyloxy-Δ3-pyrrolin-2-one of melting point m.p.: 205°-206° C. are obtained.

Preparation of the starting compounds
Example (II-1) ##STR171##
29.1 g (0.117 mol) of 4-(t-butyl)-methyl 1-amino-1-cyclohexanecarboxylate hydrochloride are dissolved in 300 ml of tetrahydorfuran and the solution is treated with 34.4 ml (0.246 mol) of triethylamine. 23 g of mesityleneacetyl chloride in 20 ml of absolute tetrahydrofuran are added dropwise at 0° to 10° C. and stirring off the batch is continued at room temperature. The end of the reaction is determined by thin-layer chromatography. The batch is stirred into 0.5 l of ice-water with 100 ml of 1N hydrochloric acid, and the mixture is extracted using dichloromethane. After the mixture has been washed with sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and after the organic phase has been dried, the solvent is stripped off. The crude product is recrystallised from toluene/n-hexane. 25.6 g (59% of theory) of methyl N-(2,4,6-tri-methylphenylacetyl)-1-amino-4.tert.-butyl-cyclohexane-carboxylate of melting point m.p.: 153°-154° C. (β-isomer) are obtained.
Example (II-2) ##STR172##
To 148 g (1.52 mol) of conc. sulphuric acid is added dropwise a solution of 90.9 g (0.30 mol) N-(2,4,6-trimethylphenylacetyl)-4-methyl-1-amino-cyclohexane-nitrile in 600 ml methylene chloride at a temperatur of 30°-40° C. After 2 h 212 ml of abs. methanol are added dropwise at 40° C. and the mixture is stirred for 6 h at 40°-70° C.
Then the reaction mixture is poured into ice water and extracted with methylene chloride. The organic phase is washed with aequous NaHCO3, dried and evaporated. The product is purified by recristallisation from toluene/n-hexane.
Yield: 73.9 g (73% of theory) of methyl N-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl-acetyl)-4-methyl-1-amino-cyclohexanecarboxylate of melting point m.p.: 146° C.
The starting compounds of the formula (II) listed below in Table 7 are obtained analogously to Example (II-1) and following the general information in the description for the processes according to the invention, in the form of isomer mixtures. ##STR173##

Examples for the preparation of the starting compounds of the formula XVII: Example XVII-1 ##STR174##
To 40 g (0.2 mol) of 1-amino-4-phenyl-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid nitrile and 28 ml (0.2 mol) of triethylamine in 450 ml of absolute tetrahydrofuran there are added dropwise with stirring at 0° C. to 10° C. 39.3 g (0.2 mol) of mesityleneacetyl chloride (compare, for example, Tetrahedron 31, 2691-2694 1975!) in 40 ml of absolute tetrahydrofuran, and, when the addition has ended, the mixture is stirred at room temperature until starting material can no longer be detected in a thin-layer chromatogram. For working-up, the reaction mixture is added with stirring to a mixture of 1000 ml of ice-water and 200 ml of 1N hydrochloric acid, solid which has precipitated is filtered off with suction, the residue is dissolved in dichloromethane, the aqueous phase is separated, the organic phase is dried over magnesium sulphate and the solvent is removed in vacuo. 65 g (91% of theory) of N-(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl-acetyl-4-phenylcyclohexanecarboxylic nitrile of melting point 235°-238° C.) are obtained.
The following compounds XVII are obtained analogously and following the general information on the preparation: ##STR175##

Example A
Phaedon larvae test
Solvent: 7 parts by weight of diemethylformamide
Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether
To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent and the stated amount of emulsifier, and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.
Cabbage leaves (Brassica oleracea) are treated by being dipped into the preparation of the active compound of the desired concentration and are infested with mustard beetle larvae (Phaedon cochleariae), while the leaves are still moist.
After the specified period of time, the destruction in % is determined. 100% means that all the beetle larvae have been killed; 0% means that none of the beetle larvae have been killed.
In this test, a superior activity compared with the prior art is shown, for example, for the following compounds of the preparation examples: (Ia-10), (Ia-11), (Ib-11), (Ib-12), (Ig-1).
Example B

Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether
To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent and the stated amount of emulsifier, and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.
Rice seedlings (Oryza sativa) are treated by being dipped into the preparation of active compound of the desired concentration and are infested with larvae of the green rice cicada (Nephotettix cincticeps) while the leaves are still moist.
After the specified period of time, the destruction in % is determined. 100% means that all the cicadas have been killed; 0% means that none of the cicadas have been killed.
In this test, a superior activity compared with the prior art is shown, for example, for the following compounds of the preparation examples: (Ia-10), (Ia-11), (Ib-11), (Ib-12) (Ig-1).
Example D
Pre-emergence test
Solvent: 5 parts by weight of acetone
Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether
To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent and the stated amount of emulsifier, and the cencentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.
Seeds of the test plants are sown in normal soil and, after 24 hours, watered with the preparation of the active compound. It is expedient to keep constant the amount of water per unit area. The concentration of the active compound in the preparation is of no importance, only the amount of active compound applied per unit area being decisive. After three weeks, the degree of damage to the plants is rated in % damage in comparison to the development of the untreated control. The figures denote:
0%=no action (like untreated control)
100%=total destruction
A clearly superior activity and crop plant selectivity compared with the prior art is shown, in this test, for example by the compounds of preparation example: (Ia-10), (Ia-11), (Ib-12), (Ib-11), (Ic-6).
Example E
Post-emergence test
Solvent: 5 parts by weight of acetone
Emulsifier: 1 part by weight of alkylaryl polyglycol ether
To produce a suitable preparation of active compound, 1 part by weight of active compound is mixed with the stated amount of solvent and the stated amount of emulsifier, and the concentrate is diluted with water to the desired concentration.
Test plants which have a height of 5-15 cm are sprayed with the preparation of the active compound in such a way as to apply the particular amounts of active compound desired per unit area. After three weeks, the degree of damage to the plants is rated in % damage in comparison to the development of the untreated control. The figures denote:
0%=no action (like untreated control)
100%=total destruction
A clearly superior activity and crop plant selectivity compared with the prior art is shown, in this test, for example by the compounds of preparation example: (Ia-10), (Ia-11), (Ib-11), (Ib-12).
